Wed, 25 Apr 2012 04:29:54 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=203335#comment-2213294You’re playing semantics now, because Ersan has had a few standout games but not more than the people who will be receiving these All- NBA teams and he’s not on a winning team. everything plays a part, not just a person’s efficiency. Wade has missed many games, his team has arguably performed better without him, his stats have seen a drop off in major categories like scoring, rebounding, fg% and 3pt% and his consistency has not been there due to injuries.

But you implied you were arguing your own opinion. “Stand-out games” also does not qualify as a good indicator of All-NBA talent. Ersan Ilyasova has had an incredible number of “stand-out games” including a 29-25 game.

Wade has been a better scorer this year. Especially since they’re both averaging the EXACT SAME points per 36 minutes. And doing it with less shots.

Wed, 25 Apr 2012 03:52:02 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=203335#comment-2213252Westbrook has been a pretty prolific scorer this season and has improved in that aspect while wade has been flustered with injuries, so his season just has not been as impressive especially when his team has went 14-2 without him if I’m not mistaken. I said take both PPG and efficiency into account and you two focus just on the efficiency. Wade has the better fg% but Westbrook fg% is not bad and he’s top Five in Scoring.

You can’t arbitrarily label Westbrook a SG. He plays point guard and should be evaluated based on his point guard play. Just as each player is evaluated within their own context. Because Wade has played a better SG season than Westbrook. I get your point, I just don’t think it’s ok to overlook WHERE a player actually plays.

I said take into account *PPG* and efficiency; therefore, westbrook has had the better season scoring wise than any guard Arguably.

Wed, 25 Apr 2012 00:34:39 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=203335#comment-2212985NBK, Westbrook has been a better Sg than Wade has been this year. Caboose, notice I said SG, you don’t have to have the PG position represented for the All NBA squad. So, Westbrook can be excused for his ineptitude as a pg this season because he has been scoring the ball better than any guard quite frankly, when you take into account the efficiency and PPG, plus he has had better games than wade this year.

Tue, 24 Apr 2012 22:49:15 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=203335#comment-2212868Also Smith is not very good offensively. He’s scoring more this year, but that’s only because he’s shooting so much. Scoring 18.7 points on 16.7 shots is uhm how do I say, “not very good at all”
. Dirk in contrast while having a poor season (because he was so terrible for the first month and a half) is scoring 21.6 on 16.8 shots. Except the whole offense runs through him which means entire defenses key in on him. He’s the reason Dallas has the record they do. His role on the Mavericks are why I value him more than Smith, not because he’s having a “better” season in terms of two-way production. But it’s real close, I don’t really have any gripes with Smith, just that I don’t agree with you’re stance he has to be over KG, TD, and Dirk.

Tue, 24 Apr 2012 22:43:29 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=203335#comment-2212863Well simply, no. KG has been a better defensive player, that is for certain. KG holds his opponent to a lower PER. The Celtics defense is 7 points better with him on the court compared to the Hawks who are 5 points better with Josh Smith. Smith puts up better basic defensive stats. But he has less of an effect on his teams defense for Garnett. Which is why Garnett will get DPOY votes and Smith won’t.

Here’s their top 10, in order: LeBron, Durant, Kobe, Rose, Wade, Dwight, Dirk, Paul, Melo Deron. Interpret that as you wish (though they did get 1 and 2 correct).

The Garnett over Duncan thing is hard for me, I just gave Garnett the edge for what he’s done defensively. I really don’t care either way, Melo screws up the whole thing with his selfishness

For the record, I don’t even want to put Melo on this team. I want to put Duncan over him. Ehh, I just hate Melo this season. What he did was completely selfish and ridiculous. He has pretty much only been really good for 3 f*cking weeks. He’s been incredibly good in that span, but F*CK he is extremely frustrating.

He supposedly was so strong Arnold Schwarzegovernorofcaliforniatheterminator refused to lift weight with him. Most of which probably isn’t true, but if it is, it’s Wilt, no contest.

And at like 8% of the price too. Ersan’s inconsistency is what holds him back for me because he showed the same flashes last year. Pierce/Melo, that’s preference.

(Paul, Wade, Pierce, Love, Bynum) — And I really want to give MIP to Ersan Ilyasova. But idk I really need to take a hard look at it, I’m still leaning towards Ryan Anderson more just because I’m more familiar with his impact on the Magic.

and cosign fat lever. the sixers are utterly powerless against miami. against a weakened D.rose and the bulls they have a chance.

There are some teams that just dominate and pose matchup problems for opponents. Miami is that team for Philly. The 6ers played Chicago well this year, and while Chicago would still win that series, there’s less likelihood the Sixers get swept by Chicago than Miami.

Technically, if you count the 99′ truncated season which projects to over 60 wins, they already have it. Kudos to the Spurs for the success.

Tue, 24 Apr 2012 13:48:58 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=203335#comment-2212078The Knicks still are mathematically alive for 6 seed if they win their remaining two games, and the Magic lose their remaining two games. Not likely it (Magic losing to Bobcats) will happen, but still possible, after all, the Bobcats did beat the Magic once before this season. BOTTOM LINE: It really don’t matter if the Knicks face the Heat or the Pacers in the 1st round. Either way, the Knicks got to play those teams if they want to have a parade down the Canyon of Heroes.

Consider the Detroit Pistons started the season 4-20…Since the team has gone 20-21 playing competitive basketball. The Piston players’ are buying in, and genuinely like Coach Frank. Joe Dumars finally getting it right again.

The implications of the UTAH JAZZ and PHOENIX SUNS…. The Jazz are half a game ahead, if the Suns win AT UTAH, they will have the same record with the Suns having ONE MORE win in the Western Conf. than the Jazz… giving them the 8th spot. I can’t even wait.
